The following example specifies that the native image generation service always binds to AssemblyA
and sometimes binds to AssemblyB
.
using System;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;
[assembly: DependencyAttribute("AssemblyA", LoadHint.Always)]
[assembly: DependencyAttribute("AssemblyB", LoadHint.Sometimes)]
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("The DependencyAttribute attribute was applied.");
}
}
Imports System.Runtime.CompilerServices
<Assembly: DependencyAttribute("AssemblyA", LoadHint.Always)>
<Assembly: DependencyAttribute("AssemblyB", LoadHint.Sometimes)>
Module Program
Sub Main(ByVal args() As String)
Console.WriteLine("The DependencyAttribute attribute was applied.")
End Sub
End Module
This attribute is used by the Ngen.exe (Native Image Generator) to generate native assembly images.
Apply the DependencyAttribute attribute to a dependent assembly with a value of the LoadHint enumeration to specify when a referring assembly is to load a dependency.
A dependency that is likely to be loaded (Always) will cause Ngen.exe to bind to that dependency. Using this hint allows Ngen.exe to generate code that will result in a reduced working set and improved throughput but at the cost of always loading the dependency when the parent assembly is loaded.
Constructors Properties Methods Explicit Interface Implementations _Attribute.GetIDsOfNames(Guid, IntPtr, UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)Maps a set of names to a corresponding set of dispatch identifiers.
(Inherited from Attribute) _Attribute.GetTypeInfo(UInt32, UInt32, IntPtr)Retrieves the type information for an object, which can be used to get the type information for an interface.
(Inherited from Attribute) _Attribute.GetTypeInfoCount(UInt32)Retrieves the number of type information interfaces that an object provides (either 0 or 1).
(Inherited from Attribute) _Attribute.Invoke(UInt32, Guid, UInt32, Int16, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr, IntPtr)Provides access to properties and methods exposed by an object.
